Every lead on Lauren Spierer’s disappearance has come up empty.

Wagers was arrested for indecent exposure in August 2015 and has been in jail ever since.

Since her disappearance, Spierer’s mother, Charlene, has made numerous pleas for information that would help authorities find her.

While Wagers reportedly lives at the address on Old Morgantown Road up until his arrest, property records show the home is owned by Danny and Lisa Walker of Martinsville. Cadaver dogs were also seen at the scene. She was 20 at the time and would have started her junior year at IU that fall. I want to find Lauren more than anything in the whole wide world and that’s the most important thing.

Investigators towed a white truck from the property. Police had been investigating a “serial flasher” wanted in several cases prior to Wagers’ arrest but could not say if he was connected to each case. According to people she was with that night, she walked out of a friend’s apartment alone in the dark without shoes or a cellphone.

The truck could be connected to 35-year-old Justin Wagers.
